Bobby Vinton, Jerry McGuire, Ethel Merman, Beach Boys all had a say in it.

As mentioned, it was a well intentioned game [for having fun] and, as a side affect [quite unintentional], it also happened to generate some new contributors to MR. No elitism, no "pecking orderism", no harm, no foul. I do think it's great to have a Forum where both technical, socio-political exchange of ideas can take place and, simple fun is not censored.

whenever a bunch of people change their tars to something similar, it's a running gag. that can't be too hard to figure out, since it's happened before, and there have been threads about it... nothing to get all freaked out about...

We are glad you are back on the board BV, and we wish you a speedy recovery.

Yes, there have been plenty of threads about this particular one before as well. A little research would have provided an answer.

Yes, we're glad to have you back, Blue Velvet. Hope you heal quickly and get back up to speed ("moving slowly").
We missed you on the boards!

It's only a blue door...and a blue door jamb and a blue wall.
Haven't any of you seen the film "Blue Velvet"? It has nothing to do with horses. That was "National Velvet." :D

That game is not fun. I had nightmares as a kid, trying to keep them alive but I couldn't! I would wake up in a cold sweat.

There is only one Blue Velvet, and her avatar has for the most part been restored to its rightful place of distinction. Our thoughts and prayers are with you BV

An excellent tribute to Blue Velvet indeed! I too wish her all the best in her recovery. As for the blue doors and wigs, I've decided just to stay out of it all. ;)

i think the next game they should play is take someone's tar and all the contributors use it.... that would get really confusing...at least to me... cause i associate people with their tars... ;) :o

looks like its part of a new webdesign and they all have cutouts of the frontpage of it or something. Like between the letters and stuff. I wonder if we put all their new "tars" together if someone could figure it out ;)

Well done and not bad at all.
But you're right... it's old already and I'd really appreciate that anyone still using their BVtar stops using it and that includes you, Lacero. It's much nicer to see everyone use something that expresses their own individuality and belief in personal freedom... much like a snakeskin jacket. ;)
